    initial v1  
    1 So... I would argue that this might be a valid ticket nonetheless. When extracting the folder "wordpress-[version].zip", I also expect the resulting folder to be "wordpress-4.7". As many of us tend to downloads WordPress multiple times through the years and have a single "Downloads" folder, this tends to get clotted. For instance, when I need to test something with a previous version of WordPress, I always download it again — just to be sure.

    33Even without these reasons: in my opinion, it makes sense that an archive called "wordpress-4.7.zip" extracts to "wordpress-4.7". I'm interested in hearing more opinions on this. The only related topic on this I could find is https://wordpress.org/ideas/topic/remove-wordpress-folder-inside-zip-file.
